Generally the issue with this is not that you don't have the correct pressure but the Burner top hat that displaces the gas is dirty.Remove the metal rack to expose the burner itself. Make sure it's not been used recently to prevent a burn. Carefully lift the little burner cap off. This is the piece with all the holes in it the flames come from. They generally just sit on top. You will need a flashlight, know look in the little slits below the cap for cleaning material buildup. A tooth pick or a stiff bristle tooth brush can be used to clean these little slits.The cleaning products used to clean stove tops tends to leave little trace amounts of surfactants that over time block these little slits and prevent the escaping gas to flow towards the ignitor preventing the burner from lighting.Once you have this clean replace the top. Put the pan grate back on and try to relight the stove.I am sure this should fix you issue. If it doesn't please let me know and I can give you some other tips to try.DR Wilkins

if you mean the switch under the knob,you can open up, drill, the switch and clean up and use it again, uless the copper parts are burned out.to get to the switch, most likely have to unscrew all the screws holding the top and the bottom together, most likely the screws will be on the top, by the gas burner on each burner. and may need to check the sides for additional screws .if you go step by step , its pretty easy.maybe you should look up on you tube for demo.
